The Trials of Anthony Burns: Freedom and Slavery in Emerson’s Boston
Albert J. Von Frank
Before 1854, most Northerners managed to ignore the distant unpleasantness of slavery. But that year an escaped Virginia slave, Anthony Burns, was captured and brought to trial in Boston. This is the story of Burns’s trial and of how it revolutionized the moral and political climate in Massachusetts and sent shock waves through the nation.
